This week, Magpul Industries is introducing the MBUS Pro front and rear back up sight featuring all steel construction. They are freaking awesome. Right out of the gate, I know some of you are going to say that they ripped off this company or that company. Ok, got it. Now, check the price. MSRP for the Front is $84.95 and Rear is $104.95.
Naturally, they are Mil Std 1913 compatible and feature positive detents for both up and down functions. Additionally, they are narrow so that they won’t get in the way of other devices such as lasers.
The MBUS Pro front sight integrates a rotary-style elevation adjustment knob so no more tools and stows just .432″ above the rail height with standard AR front sight height when deployed for use.
The Rear MBUS Pro is dual aperture and adjustable for windage.
The Rear Sight is .375″ above the rail when stowed and extends to full AR height when in use.
Look for a formal announcement soon from www.Magpul.com.
wow…
Take my money now!
I’d like to try these out, I’ve been a fan of the MBUS design but not the polymer. Steel sounds promising.
looks awesome! can’t wait to get a set into the shop!
I didn’t want to touch the plastic ones. These– these are going on the next flat top I put together.
“rotary-style elevation adjustment knob”? So that means I can’t replace it with my fiber optic sight post, does it?
Or my tritium one?…..
Correct, you cannot change the front sight post with a standard FSP found in the Magpul MBUS Gen 2
Bullcrap… my Meprolight post works fine in my MBUS II front sight.
That is correct, it uses a different front sight post so it cannot be replaced with your current one.
Very nice! Will need to get my hands on a rear for my SBR
Offset sights, here I come with these!
Now make a 45 degree off-set version for those of us running low power variable optics and you will own the market!
Totally agree!!
This, definitely this. This would give KAC a run for its money.
Just so kool!! Need 5 sets!!!!!
Fingers crossed for a version cerakoted in FDE.
These are effn sick!! Lovin em! They do favor a infamous companys sights but thats why Im diggin em! They blew it out the park with these! Theyr on the website now!!
Who makes the charging handle in the bottom left picture?
Rainier Arms/AXTS Raptor Ambi charging handle
Thanks
Cool. It looks as though the small aperture opens to the front, making it possible for the large aperture to be ready with the sight stowed in the down position, alowing for a CQB “ready” when the sight is deployed. VERY COOL INDEED! Over the top once again Magpul!
